Iqama Renewal
Foreign nationals must renew their Iqama within three days of its expiration to avoid fines or legal issues. The Iqama is a critical document that allows expatriates to live and work legally in Saudi Arabia.
New features on Absher
Alongside the fee updates, the Absher platform now includes features like a tool to report absconding individuals entering on guest visas. These additions highlight the importance of compliance with Saudi residency rules.
Expats are encouraged to stay informed about these changes and use the Absher platform for efficient processing of services like Iqama renewal and visa extensions.
